    For most children, too little dietary fiber is the most common cause of constipation. The large intestine mainly relies on fiber to absorb water to fill the volume. If the dietary fiber is too short for a long time, the large intestine peristalsis is seriously insufficient. Not only is the bowel speed slow, the beneficial bacteria lack the "food" required for reproduction, but also greatly increases the risk of bowel cancer.
